I see work and life as two sides of the same boat — when one rocks, the other sways too. That idea sits at the center of how I coach.
I spent 18 years building a career across business and technology — in product and business roles at companies like Colgate-Palmolive, LinkedIn, and Zoom, and in startups including Innade and Fropcorn. Along the way, I moved from sales into product management, from individual contributor into leadership, and through more than one bout of burnout. I know what those transitions feel like from the inside, not just in theory.
Coaching found me before I became a coach. I worked with a coach myself through a period of grief, and again during my shift from IC to leadership — and both times, I felt firsthand what real coaching can do. That experience eventually led me to found Innade, a coaching platform built to unlock the potential of Asia's white-collar workforce. It also planted a quieter dream: to become a coach myself. I made that official in 2026, and I'm now an ICF-accredited life coach.
My coaching is rooted in positive psychology and habit-building, and I'm trained in Compassion Cultivation and Positive Intelligence. I bring a genuine curiosity about human psychology to every session — it shapes how I listen and how I show up for my clients.
The first thing I build with every client is trust. I believe it's the real prerequisite for growth — more than any framework or technique. From there, I adapt to you. No cookie-cutter program, no one-size-fits-all process.
Outside of coaching: I grew up in an Army family, which meant a childhood spent across multiple cultures, and I've since lived and worked in India, Singapore, and the US. I'm now based in California with my wife and our dog, Oggie. On weekends, you'll usually find me outdoors or playing a game of cricket.
Coaching isn't linear, but most journeys move through the same arc.
